Where should I begin... The input level on the microphone is so low, the software wouldn't even pick it up. As a handheld recorder, the playback in unrecognizable. I thought this would be a great gift for my daughter...no chance. It doesn't even work as a standard microphone for the computer...

You get what you pay for and this is the perfect example. It comes with a portable microphonic device that can't record quality voice-overs. The software is a joke, but what do you expect for 12.95. Spend your 13.00 elseware, maybe on a condensor mic that actually works.

the microphone is poorly made, buttons are difficult to push, recording quality is poor, software was entertaining for about 10 minutes but it's inflexibility rendered it useless. Even if you get it for free, as I did, it is not worth the hassle. Mine sits in a drawer, unused for many months, after only about 30 minutes of use.

To be honest, I never even made it to trying out the software.

This thing is not even acceptable as a toy. It is very cheaply made. The silver thing on top is an almost useless speaker - the microphone is actually below that and is tiny and very poor at picking up sound.

It can only record 3 minutes of crummy mono sound, unless plugged into a computer and used as a cheap microphone.

There is no display to show what is recorded, and the volume control has 2 settings - low and high.

The whole thing looks and feels like it is ready to break apart.

Well, it might not be a piece of technological genious, but hey, it's only 40 bucks! If you want a quality digital recorder, don't even LOOK at anything under $150. Otherwise, for $40, you're silly not to think of it as a toy.

A lot of hype for what it is: poorly made and pretty useless.

I got this device at a Goodwill for a buck. I had no idea what it even was, but thought it looked cool. I knew it must be some sort of voice recorder, but its kinda hard to work with, and the quality is rather poor, reminiscent of the old YakBaks in the late 90s. I got on and was surprised at the price on Amazon, but reading the reviews, it doesn't sound like a too great of a piece of equipment. But, for a $1, its kinda cool looking, and makes a heck of an alien communicator prop for an Indy film, which is really the reason I got it in the first place!

I BOUGHT IT FOR MY SON AND I JUST WANT U TO KNOW THAT IT IS GOOD BUT IT IS WORTHLESS IT SO DIFFICULT TO WORK AND EVERYTHING ELSE
